I was told BEFORE anyone can be signed a contract with PCP they do a background check and some other checks as well. So I'm confident we'll be o.k. with our eye coverage. We will NEED to keep tuned to see how the acquistition is with the sale of PCP to see if it will be a good "marriage" and benefit to the patients. Just thought you all should be updated on this whole issue from the previous thread over the weekend.

Thanks for the update!
I e-mailed St. Lukes to see if they might be accepting Preferred Care Partners once they open here in The Villages. Here is what I received for a reply:
Right now we accept Preferred Care PPO's and PFFS (private fee for
service). We do not accept any Preferred Care HMO's. Once the office
is built and our doctors get credentialed for that location, it may
change. There is no way for us to tell you this early on if we will take
any other plans.
Check back with us when the office opens and we can advise you better.

What a great addition they would be to our provider list.
